Our story
Farming in our family for four generations
Set in the heart of the rural countryside, Staffordshire Meats is a family story four generations in the making. From great-grandfather to grandfather, father to Pete, farming has never just been a livelihood. It's been a passion, and a responsibility passed down with pride.
"Because free-range really does mean free-range on my farms!"Pete, the farmer
Meet the farmer
Meet Pete
Pete, affectionately known as "Big Pete", has loved farming since he was a boy, growing up on the land his family has worked for generations.
Today the family owns four farms straddling the beautiful Staffordshire and Derbyshire borders, where 100% British Hereford & Angus cattle, pigs and Suffolk ewes are reared to the highest standards of animal welfare, nurtured with care and raised with genuine passion.
The next generation
Three Petes, one farm, one shared passion
Farm to plate
Full traceability, every step of the way
Traditional farming methods aren't just a nod to the past, they're a core principle. Every animal is reared with full traceability from farm to plate, so you always know exactly where your meat comes from and how it was raised. Bringing the best of British.

Our farm shops
